i agree with suresh's assessment. Lately lot of spammers are getting /32 ipv6 assignments with their own ASNs and having a nice run. The ipv4 allotment is seriously broken in ripe - just having paperwork with valid forms filled is good enough to allot what ever range the spammers can ask. regards vijay On Mon, Jul 8, 2013 at 12:04 AM, Suresh Ramasubramanian <ops.lists@gmail.com

The lack of progress is simply because you have very few people who are in a security rather than IP admin or network ops role. Security as in for a seriously large provider.
The other lack of progress - well, changing entrenched policies, or enforcing them beyond a point where the enforcer is reluctant to investigate (or is it "play police" according to the local meme) is as tough as it sounds.

Any spammer on this list (think so, simply because of the lack of progress) ?
* Im starting now a second carrier in renting all the IPv4 addresses left in our allocation exclusively to abusers and make a lot of money with it. Just make offers now. *
Will surely put a working abuse contact email address in RIPEs db, that gets directed to /dev/null and have a correct postal address somewhere on a funny island ...
And it looks like if nobody could ever do anything against it.
The current regulations are simply slippery as an eel (like we say in Germany), no way to catch anybody responsible. Again, ridicolous ...
